Arabian Nights

1001 Nuits

The bewitching magic of Sheherazade’s voice

Where we’ll notice that the main hero of this story is a woman…
To intelligence and luminous beauty…

But hey, let’s skip the religious war that’s still going on…. It was just a remark for those who are afraid of Dubai and the Arab world…

It seems to me that the whole world knows at least two or three legends from the 1001 Nights…

We’ve made movies out of them.
Cartoons
Comic books
Music
Paintings, circus shows

**Ali Baba** – BNF (Bibliothèque Nationale de France)

Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) Shéhérazade – Three poems for voice and orchestra on verses by Tristan Klingsor : 00:00 1. Asie 09:53 2. La flûte enchantée 13:05 3. L’indifférent Anne Sofie von Otter, mezzo-soprano The Cleveland Orchestra Conducted by Pierre Boulez 2002

Composer: Nikolai Rimsky Korsakov Conductor: Valery Abisalovich Gergiev (Russia) Orchestra: Vienna Philharmonic

Drama : created from the original text by the Compagnie Midi Minuit

Théâtre de l’Odéon Saison 2019-20 – Midi Minuit Company

So, a few days before Christmas, let’s not deprive ourselves of these wonderful legends…

Obviously, it has nothing to do with Prince of Persia…

Merci. Tous mes meilleurs voeux. En espérant que 2020 soit une année de concrétisation pour vos projets et vos voeux personnels. Tenez, dans le cas où vous auriez l’occasion de monter à Paris, je vous recommande de voir le dernier de la saga Star Wars (avec toujours un visuel magnifique) au Pathé Gaumont de Beaugrenelle (dans le centre commercial) sur écran screenX unique en France : une vision à 270 degrés. Le cinéma aussi évolue. Je n’ai pu le voir que sur l’écran Oled. Il n’y avait plus de place. Et c’était déjà magnifique. Si vous ne trouvez pas de place, faîtes moi signe, j’ai trouvé un coupe fil !

  Merci à vous et tous nos voeux également ! Quant à Star Wars, évidemment, il a été vu dès que sorti.

    Mais c’est formidable ! La vision à 270 degrés aurait atteint le Centre du monde. On n’arrête plus le progrès de nos jours.
